Here's a card I created using a lovely digi image from Meljen's Designs. I coloured it with copics, cut it out and mounted it on embossed white paper, matted every so slightly with some green. I added some stardust stickles to the flower along with a few rhinestones.

Okay...if you're like me, you just LOVE this Sassy Cheryl Image. It reminds me of the Charlie Brown Christmas tree !! I just love it.

This card is pretty CAS with a little bling added to the red ornament that's causing the branch to droop. (Glossy Accents). The little guy looks so warm and cozy but disappointed all at once, doesn't he ??

I couldn't resist creating a card with this gorgeous Cheryl Alger stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie. I've left the sentiment off to keep it very CAS. I'm sending it along with a whole bunch more cards for Kards for Kids, HSC.

Here's a lovely Christmas card I created as a Design Team Member for the current One Stitch at a Time Challenge blog. I coloured it with copics and added a little bit of stickles/glitter. I also used a corner of kraft cardstock (embossed) to give the card a little more texture. All in all this a CAS card that could be mass-produced to give to your entire Christmas card list !!

The image is CHRISTMAS GATE by Tami aka Ginger Loft which can be found here:

Here's a lovely little Thanksgiving card I created using an image from Bugaboo Stamps. I used glossy accents on the pumpkin to make it shiny and plump.

You can find the image here in the Bugaboo shop (check out the current Friday Freebie Bugaboo offers each week too while you are there):

I hope you'll join us this week in the challenge and create a Thanksgiving card of your own. I am saving this card for next year, as here in Canada we celebrate Thanksgiving in October, not November like in the U.S.

I created a card using a coloured digital image from Sassy Cheryl. The image is so lovely and doesn't need a sentiment. I was inspired by a card Kristina Werner created on Day 1 of Holiday Card Workshop 2013 - online card class (notice the partially embossed base and the strips of colour which look like washi tape)

I'm entering it in the following challenges:
1. Sassy Cheryl's Show Me Thursday

Here's a card I created for Kards for Kids, HSC. It's a lovely Bugaboo digital image and was pretty simple to colour and create the card. I embossed the card base, attached the coloured image and added some red ribbon and a computer generated sentiment.

Here's a fall card I created using a Stitchy digital image. Isn't this little guy sitting atop a pumpkin so gosh darn cute ? I just love him. I used a sketch from Come and Get it challenges to create the card and it came together quite easily.

Here's a card I created using a wonderfully versatile Sassy Cheryl digital image. I love how many different cards you can make with this image to suit just about any occasion.

I used copics to colour it in a sort-of monochromatic way to match the kraft cardstock I used. (the boat is brown-ish but photographed kind of pink - LOL) I also added the swirly embossed piece to give it a bit of texture. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp. I used stickles to give the water some sparkle and added the rhinestones to give it a bit of blingy-pop.

Here's a little Christmas card I made for the current challenge at "One Stitch at a Time" challenge Blog. (#188 - Use a Digi)

I would love for you to come and join in on the fun. Simply create something using a digital image and post on the blog for a chance to win the complete set of images that the DT used in challenge #186 from Stitchy Bear Outlet, Runner up prize of $3 also.

I created the card with Christmas Lamp image, and coloured with Copics. You can find the image here:

I used Glossy Accents around the lamp itself to make it look like metal. I made a ribbon/bow with cardstock just by cutting and shaping some folded paper to look like a bow. The cardstock is from my stash of papers.

Here's my DT card for the current challenge at "Brown Sugar Challenges".

http://brownsugarchallenge.blogspot.com.br/

The theme is "things with wings" My image is from Digi Darla and can be found here:

http://www.digidarladesigns.com/Digidarlas-Quilted-Owl-1_p_2088.html

I coloured the image with copics, added some pearls around the image and on the edge of the card. The wee little white bow is tied using a "fork" as an easy-peasy way of doing a tiny bow. I added some pen stitching around the image to give it a sewn feel like the owl has.

The sentiment is from The Stamps of Life
